(Thanks to Joe Kline for updating Perl 6 on our work computers.)
As a result of the recent "Great List Refactor" (also known as "GLR" or
"glr") semantic changes in Perl 6 in the past six months or so I had to
change my Perl 6 program from
@string ==> map {.chars} ==> my @width;
return @width.max;
to
return max map {.chars}, @string;
or, and I like this better because it reads left to right,
return (@string ==> map {.chars} ==> max);
I like Perl 6 much better than Perl 5.
